“I love the originality and classic look and feel of this snare - especially the nickel hardware”Jared, in the listing
The Pioneer has long been a classic snare drum that's become a staple of most studios and collectors quiver. These tried and tested snares are known for versatility and warmth.
I picked this snare up in person at The Chicago Vintage Drum Show, it was already in great condition. Once I got it home, I gave it a once over and put on a fresh Remo Hazy batter side head.
I love the originality and classic look and feel of this snare - especially the nickel hardware, it's a classy touch!
Great opportunity to own a piece of drumming history and get those classic sounds, at an affordable price.
